DAVAO CITY, Philippines – President Rodrigo Duterte hinted on Thursday, May 24, that another government official would be receiving the axe.
“I might fire another one pagbalik ko sa (when I return to) Malacanang,” Duterte said in his speech during the inauguration of the expanded Davao River Bridge in his hometown on Thursday night.
The President, however, gave no further details as to which official he was referring to.
Duterte has been sacking government officials, with then Transportation Assistant Secretary Mark Tolentino the latest to be removed from his post.
Tolentino, according to the President, was sacked for allegedly making deals with one of Duterte’s sisters.
Duterte mentioned anew his disappointment over the sacked officials. “Sadly, most of those (fired) were my appointees and my friends, and who were with me during the mayorship days,” he said. – Rappler.com
